Tris POV
Saturday is finally here. Date night, and my nerves are getting the best of me. Four won't tell me where we are going so it's making me even more nervous. Luckily Christina was able to find out some hints for me from Zeke who is Four's best friend.
"Zeke says that it has something to do with food and dancing." Christina tells me as she's piecing an outfit together for me to wear on my bed. From the looks of the collection that she has assembled for me she's going for something noticeable. She's picked out black skinny jeans, a black ¾ length sleeved Henley shirt and dark charcoal grey leather boot heels.
"Um Christina don't you think this is a little much?" I told her eyeing the outfit.
"Not at all, it's just enough to make him notice you. Now go get dressed!" She said pointing to the bathroom. I begrudgingly grabbed the clothes from the bed and headed down the hall to the bathroom. I put on the clothes and realize Christina was right. This is the perfect outfit for me to get noticed by him without being too revealing. The clothes hugged what little curves I had and they made me feel like a girl. I walked back to my bedroom to find Christina with an assortment of hair appliances and makeup spread out over my bed. I cringed at the site of everything.
"Wipe that look off your face and come sit down over here. We don't have much time before he gets here." I looked at her and showed a weak smile and sat down at the end of my bed. Christina began working her magic on me. After 45 minutes she was done with me. I looked in the mirror and couldn't believe my eyes. She had curled my hair to make it look like beach waves cascading all around me. My eyes were done with black liner and different shades of silver shadow. The shadow made the blue in my eyes pop.
"Well you have out done yourself missy. Thank you!" I told her giving her a hug.
"I know I did and you're welcome!" She said hugging me back. She told me goodbye not soon after and headed out leaving me with my nerves yet again. I sat quietly in my room waiting for Four to show up. The doorbell rang knocking me out of my day dream. I walked down to the front door and opened it to find Four standing there in all of his glory. He was wearing dark wash jeans, and a black button down shirt. His hair in an organized mess but he looked perfect none the less.
"Hi there." He said breaking my stare from him. He held a smirk on his face taking in my expression.
"Hi yourself." I said taking his hand and entwining my fingers with his. I smiled up at him as we head toward his car. He opened my door for me then headed to his side and got in. He started the car and we were off. My curiosity got the better of me.
"Where are we going?" I asked him. He smirked at me again.
"You'll see. You look gorgeous by the way." He said with a wink. We kept driving with small chit chat between us until we finally came to a stop in front of a hole in the wall restaurant called The Pit. We parked the car and headed in. It was nothing like I would of guessed. There are wine bottles hung all along the ceiling and little tables set up all over with little red and white plaid table cloths on them. It looks like a scene from Lady and the Tramp. I awed at him as we went and sat at our table.
"Well I hope you like Italian food. I love this place they have the best breadsticks in town." He said eyeing me expectantly.
"I love Italian food." I told him with a smile. He relaxed immediately at my response.
"What's your favorite dish?" he asks me with a goofy grin. I can't get enough of this side of him. I have gotten to see this side of him a lot in the last few weeks and couldn't wait to see more of it.
"Ravioli is mine how about you?" I asked returning his goofy smile.
"Lasagna here. Favorite color?" he shoots back.
"Red you?" I shoot right back.
"Blue." He says with a wink. I wonder what that was about. I guess I'll never know. We continue on like this throughout dinner. Once dinner was complete we walked hand in hand to the river. Four rubbed small circles on the back of my hand as we walked. The small gesture calmed my nerves. Once we reached the river he stops me abruptly and wraps his arms around me in a hug. I melt into him taking in the scent that I have missed so much.
"What's this for?" I asked listening to his heartbeat. It was racing just as fast as mine was. I wonder what for.
"I've wanted to do this since the last time we hung out. I've missed you." He said squeezing me tighter. He missed me. Just like I have missed him. I think my heart may have just burst out of my chest. Little did I know that was only the beginning of my heart bursting. Next thing I know he was looking down at me with his beautiful eyes and leaning into my face. Inches away from my lips I couldn't help myself I leaned up and kissed him first. He seemed a little surprised at first and backed off right away.
"Sorry I didn't mean too… I thought you were going to." I muttered backing away from him a bit crushed. He noticed my expression and took me back into his embrace. I stiffened at the touch.
"I was going to do that you just took me by surprise is all." He said grinning and leaning down and kissing me on my lips. It was sweet and slow at first but they became fiery quickly. Only when I broke away did I realize that I hadn't been breathing and grasped for air.
"That was amazing. But I think we should be heading back soon. It's getting late. I don't want your parents to hate me after one date." He said chuckling at my pouting face. He placed a chaste kiss on my head and we started to head back hand in hand. Once we were back in front of my house he walked me to my door. He drew me into a kiss again and I couldn't help but melt into it. We stood there kissing for quite some time until we finally broke away to catch our breath again.
"This was one of the best dates I have been on. Thank you Four." I told him withholding the fact that it's the only date I have been on.
"You're very welcome Tris. Hopefully you will join me on another on next Friday?" he asked me with hope and a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Of course I will. Hey by the way I was told there would be dancing on this date. What happened there?" I asked him secretly grateful that there wasn't any.
"I knew Christina was snooping so I fed Zeke some false information. I wanted tonight to be a surprise and didn't want it to be spoiled." He told me matter of factly. I just nodded and leaned in for another hug.
"I've got to go hun. I will see you on Monday ok?" he said kissing the top of my head.
"Ok goodnight then." I told him releasing him
"Good night Tris." He said placing one last peck on my lips before turning and walking to his car. I watched him go missing his warmth already. Monday was a long ways away.
